Prometheus, no need for fire
Queen B is aflame
No, she is an empress
Kings bow before her prowess
No, she is a goddess
Aphrodite falls short in her light
Prometheus, no need for fire
Queen B is aflame
And I am
wax in
her presence
Colin, actually when I sat down to write this I was wondering if I should have written Queen... instead of Queen B. Queen B is a slang term that has many definitions in the urban dictionary: most bad but some good. Queen B to me is that girl who doesn't follow the trends, she sets them.
Prometheus is a Greek god that stole fire for humanity because we were ignorant and living in the cold. However, Queen B is aflame so we no longer needed him because this girl is 'super hot' - not that I use this expression in conversation to refer to attractive ladies but it does refer to some extent to her beauty and intelligence.
Like I said I was thinking about going with Queen... but Queen B seemed more appropriate.
i love this, the way it is set out, the thick, heady imagery, the historical theme and the excellent last lines.

I like this Juan but could you explain Queen B for me? I'm pretty sure I've got your meaning but I would be interested nonetheless. Thanks, Colin

hello again Juan - yes, definitely keep your Queen B - it was how I read the poem so I am pleased I was on the right track. I totally agree with Stu btw.
